I'd say at least a 10 gallon tank. I use a fluval internal filter but mine is slightly modified because they sometimes make to much current for tanks and that can really bother axies. With a filter you just want a really low current filter. I use carbon filter inserts in all of my tanks (fish and axie) because they seem to keep it cleaner. Go to www.axolotl.org they have a lot of good information on there that can get you going in the right direction.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
